Information on the Club itself

Llyn Brenig Sailing Club was founded in 1976 and is located about 10 miles west of Denbigh in North Wales .  Just follow the A543 from Denbigh to Pentrefoelas, then the B4501 to the Llyn Brenig Visitor Centre - the reservoir is well signposted.  The Club enjoys spectacular scenery, and being over 1200 feet above sea level, gives excellent winds and very few days when sailing cannot take place.

LBSC is a small friendly club with membership that caters for Families and Single Members, and has facilities for able bodied and disabled Sailors.  Facilities include:

· hot showers in comfortable changing rooms including facilities for disabled members;

· fully equipped galley;

· training room;

· training fleet of six Picos, two Optimists and two Wayfarers;

· two safety boats

· Challenger trimarans for disabled members;

· Concrete ramp for launching;

· Lifts to give access to the Clubhouse and boats on shore

· Boat and car parks

· Pontoon

The success of the club is very much down to the initiative, energy and hard work of its members. Members are expected to contribute in what ever way they can to enable all members to enjoy the facilities. The club welcomes members from all walks of life, junior, senior and disabled.

We have an active fleet of boats from a wide variety of classes, the largest of which is the Flying Fifteen fleet. A number of members also moor sailing cruisers up to twenty two feet.

Organised Sailing, when all facilities are available, takes place on a Sunday, first Race starting at 11:30, but Members can use the Club at any time, subject to them observing the Lake Safety Requirements

The club also organises a training programme run by members who are RYA qualified instructors.

The sailing season is from the beginning of April to the end of November with a full sailing programme. In addition to holding open meetings, Regattas and the Welsh Open Challenger Championship (WOCC)  the club also has a winter social programme which is very popular.

LBSC has a Constitution and is run by a management committee.
